How to reach the property:
The lake is only 10 minutes away from the estate. Its clear and clean waters can offer a fantastic opportunity to enjoy a holyday that is a combination of water sports (water-skiing, windsurfing, sailing, etc.) and culture. Horse riding is another fascinating opportunity to enjoy the countryside above the lake, with the horses available at the Castle.
The fairy tale Castle is most romantic with its castellated turret rising above old age woods.
S. Cristina is a wonderful place to stay, with the opportunity of water sports or just lazing on the beach at Lake Bolsena, horse riding, and mountain biking or hiking in the Monte Rufeno National Park.
On request fantastic boat trips on the lake can be done including water-skiing and archeological snorkeling above the remains of a pre-Etruscan village lying on the bottom of the lake at 3 meters dating back to 1000 years B.C.Thanks to its strategic position S. Cristina's guests have only to choose between a visit to an Etruscan necropolis (the nearest one is only 7 km away) or other magnificent sites of great interest, belonging to different ages.
It has a long association with powerful Prelates who played a key role in forming the Vatican State, which culminated in Pope Pius IX's chief advisor, Cardinal Prospero Caterini, choosing the Castello in 1848 as his personal residence. His descendants still use this as a country home.
